Vibration Control and Actuation of Large-Scale Systems

gives a systematically and self-contained description of the many facets of envisaging, designing, implementing, or experimentally exploring advanced vibration control systems. The book is devoted to the development of mathematical methodologies for vibration analysis and control problems of large-scale systems, including structural dynamics, vehicle dynamics and wind turbines, for example. The research problems addressed in each chapter are well motivated, with numerical and simulation results given in each chapter that reflect best engineering practice.
